失眠患者相关经脉腧穴的红外热像观察

Infrared Thermography Observation of Related Meridian and Acupoints in Insomniacs

为观察失眠患者相关经脉腧穴的红外体表温度变化规律,利用红外人体表面温度快速筛检仪采集失眠患者和健康自愿者的督脉、膀胱经、脾经、心经和阴阳跷脉上穴位的体表温度,并对比两组同名穴位的温度差值(腋下温度--穴位温度)的差异。结果表明,失眠组患者的督脉、膀胱经颈背部腧穴温度较对照组下降更明显(P<0.05)。脾经腧穴的温度虽然下降,但与对照组比较无明显差异。对于心经腧穴,部分病例出现温度下降,部分出现上升现象,与对照组比较有显著差异(P<0.05)。阴跷脉腿部腧穴的温度下降(P<0.05),阳跷脉头部腧穴的温度上升(P<0.05)。由此可知,失眠患者经脉腧穴体表温度的变化体现了失眠的内在病机--"阳亢于上,阴甚于下,阳不入阴",临床可根据红外热成像的检测结果选穴治疗。

In order to observe the infrared body surface temperature changes of related meridian acupoints in insomnia patients, the body surface temperature of the acupoints on Du meridian, bladder, spleen, heart channel and yinqiao, yangqiao meridian of insomnia patients and healthy volunteers was collected by an infrared human skin temperature rapid screening instrument. The temperature difference in the same name acupoints of the two groups(underarm temperature-acupoint temperature) was compared. The results showed that the temperature of the back and neck points on Du meridian and bladder in the insomnia group decreased more significantly than the control group(P <0.05). Although the temperature of the spleen meridian points decreased, there was no significant difference compared with the control group. In the heart meridian of the acupoints, the temperature decreased in some cases and increased in some cases, which was significantly different from the control group(P <0.05). The temperature of leg points on yinqiao meridian decreased(P<0.05), and the temperature of head points on yangqiao meridian increased(P<0.05). It can be seen that the changes of body temperature in the meridians of the insomnia patients reflect the intrinsic pathogenesis of insomnia: "the Yang Hyperactivity is on the upper side, the yin is lower than the lower, the yang is not in the yin". The clinical treatment can be selected according to the results of infrared thermography.
